Pingtung Hotels with Balcony

A few things: first, compared to some other Airbnbs in this part of Kenting, this one is a bit closer to the ”main street” area and the beaches, but it is also quite close to the ”Sail Rock,” which is actually I think even prettier to look at than the beaches. There is indeed a beach nearby too though not as popular for swimming and surfing and so forth due to rocks nearby. There is a 7/11 close by, and a few restaurants, though I did not try them out. You will probably end up taking a bus or biking over to the busier part of Kenting for food. But, since there is a beach right there, if you book the room with the sea view, this means you can enjoy the beach view from the apartment, which I think is great and not really all that common even among the nicer hotels in the area. There is also a ”bath/hot tub” that you can use to enjoy the view, which I think makes it more comfortable since it can be quite hot outside so you can sit there and cool off. The owner is also nice and he can pick you up from Xiaowan if you come from the 9189 bus. Otherwise you can take the 9188 bus directly to the Airbnb without much walking, which is also very convenient. In fact this was the main reason why I picked the place, which I imagine would also be suitable for the other rooms as well though they wouldnt have as nice a view of course. One note is that even with air conditioning on it can be somewhat warm due to the windows on all sides so its best to run the fans to help increase air circulation and stay cool inside. There's also a speaker you can make use of to play your tunes.

Had a wonderful stay at Lixia Hostel. Stayed for two nights in the 8-person mixed room. Everything in the hostel was clean and well taken care of. The atmosphere was really nice, especially on the first floor, which is also a small coffee shop. Very well chosen interior and music – it creates a pleasant and calm atmosphere. Also, there is a very cute cat on the first floor. The room itself had a decent mattress, plus a locker which you can put your items into next to your bed. Also, there is straight access to a small balcony to dry your swimsuits and towels, as well as a washing and drying area for your snorkelling equipment outside. The shared bathroom, shower, sink/mirror area was also clean. Additionally, the air conditioner temperature was just right, with a good dehumidifier next to it – so even with hot weather, you can have a good sleep. The hostel is only a 10 minute walk from the harbour, with bike/e-scooter rental places only 5 minutes away if you don’t have an international driving license. Lots of options for food all around, a familymart at a short walking distance, plus a nice fruit shop just next door for a refreshing snack.

The hotel balcony offers a nice view! The owner upgraded our room, and the two queen beds were incredibly comfortable and very clean. Right across the street, there are jet ski rentals and other fun activities, which was super convenient. The only slight drawback is that dining options are a bit limited; you have to go to Kenting Street for food. Overall, it's a highly recommended hotel.

We stayed at the 海景三合院特色民宿 Seashoy BnB during the Qingming Festival holiday weekend. The architecture is stunning. The owners contacted me before we traveled to the island, asking if we wanted help booking the ferry and a scooter. They're very helpful people! Once we arrived, they gave us maps showing tourist places of interest, and which beaches are safe for swimming. They can also give advice about restaurants. The location is great, there's a beach within walking distance and a few restaurants and bars. But if you have a scooter/motorbike then it's easy to get around the island from anywhere. I really liked that there is a building with extra showers, sinks and mirrors- and you can wash your swimsuits and towels without having to trek messy sand into your room after a day at the beach. Even though the room was a little small, it was clean and had everything we needed. Breakfast was OK, you should collect it from the reception early or it'll get cold. When we checked out, we were kindly given traditional Liuqiu cookies and cards with artwork. I know that the price was a bit high because of the holiday weekend demand, but it was definitely worth it for a comfortable and relaxing stay on Liuqiu Island.

We contacted you in advance to arrange luggage storage, yet when we arrived there was no one there and it took a long time to get hold of anyone. Why couldn’t an access code have been provided before our arrival so we could store our bags without unnecessary delays? When we eventually managed to contact someone, it turned out that only the cleaner was on site. We were repeatedly told to leave the front door open with all of our belongings in plain view while there was no reception staff present. How is that a reasonable or secure way to treat guests? We returned at 4:00 pm for check-in and once again spent around 15 minutes trying to reach someone because there was still no one available. Another resident even told us that no staff member would be coming that day. When we finally got through to someone, there was no apology whatsoever for the inconvenience. To make matters worse, only one towel was provided for our stay. The noise on the first floor was excessive, and the door lock did not feel secure. I have stayed in many budget hotels, including some that were unclean or poorly maintained, but this has been by far the worst experience due to the complete lack of customer service and the apparent absence of even the most basic procedures for running accommodation. Is this really how you treat your customers?

Hotel Review (Accessibility & Safety Concerns): The location of this hotel is very convenient — it is close to the beach and within walking distance to the night market, which is definitely a plus. However, overall my stay was not very comfortable. Inside the room, the floor is not completely even. While it may not seem like a big issue at first, it could easily become a tripping hazard, especially for older guests or anyone not paying close attention. The bathroom is also not separated into dry and wet areas, which makes it more slippery and less convenient to use. Another important point is that the hotel does not have an elevator. Carrying luggage up and down the stairs can be quite inconvenient, particularly for elderly guests or those with heavy bags. Although the interior design may look quite stylish or luxurious at first glance, in reality it feels impractical and raises safety concerns. There are other small details as well, but I will not go into them here. I understand that different properties have their own limitations, and I am sharing this from a personal perspective. I hope this information can be helpful for future travelers when making their decision.

The house is very clean and tidy, highly recommended. ” ”The room is very clean and there are many restaurants nearby, which is very convenient.” ”The location is good, the room is large, the bathroom and toilet are also large, and it is very comfortable to live in!” ”The location is relatively remote, but the house is comfortable, the environment is quiet, and the staff is friendly.

I've stayed at Seawall before, and I remember the air conditioning in the room being very quiet, not affecting my sleep quality at all. This time I stayed in a street-view room with a small balcony, and the AC was still very quiet. It's really important to get good rest when you're traveling. From the hotel entrance, you can see the Dawan seascape and the sunset, and Kenting Street is right behind the hotel. For us, who prioritize relaxation, it's a very suitable and convenient location. Seawall provides breakfast vouchers for a restaurant on the first floor of another building. It's quite simple, but it has everything you need, and I personally thought it was good.

This stay included an upgrade to a Chocolate Room. The front desk and other staff at the resort were generally very friendly and welcoming. I suspect that due to a higher number of guests this time or a lack of staff for a while, breakfast was extended to the second-floor restaurant on Sunday. Guests dining after 8 am had to wait a bit. However, the most concerning experience was my dinner on Saturday evening. I'm unsure if it was due to uneven staff allocation or a lack of support measures, but it seems there were many more guests not on the reservation list. While there wasn't a shortage of front-of-house staff, I don't understand why one person at the counter had to run around so much. Shouldn't there be at least two people on duty at the counter to seat guests? Waiting for a table for dinner took over 15 minutes. Each group of guests just stood at the door waiting, with piles of empty tables. There were no walkie-talkies in the kitchen or back, and the flow of people and guests was chaotic. As for the dinner buffet, I don't think it's worth the resort's price. Think twice before eating at the resort's buffet; the selection wasn't very diverse, and the barbecue wasn't as good as expected. The white shrimp was fresh, though. I hope senior management sees this feedback. The duplex room was incredibly stuffy and had a damp smell when we first checked in. We recommend setting the air conditioner to dehumidify to remove the smell and cool it down faster. The bathroom had plenty of water, but the temperature control was inconsistent depending on the number of guests and the time of day. The elevator was very slow, and the layout of the basement wasn't great. The water facilities were maintained daily, and there were shows to enjoy in the evenings. Overall, it was a pretty good hotel for its age.

The staff were really nice, and the hotel was quite clean. However, the room had poor sound insulation, and we had an internal window (meaning if we didn't close the curtain, everyone in the hallway could see into our room, which wasn't convenient). It's also far from the port, so without a motorbike/scooter, it's difficult to get around. I recommend renting one. If you don't want to, don't choose this hotel, or you risk walking in the heat. There's a bus about once an hour, and the driver is very friendly. He even dropped us off right in front of our hotel when we arrived. It's close to Beauty Beach and Venice Beach, which are both beautiful.
